What to wear to wake?

Is black out?

I have on a royal blue maternity dress and white cardigan, but I also brought a black maxi dress. Not sure if what I am wearing is already appropriate or if I should wear black?

I'd keep what you have on. Most of the wakes I've been to, black is reserved for the family, but it varies. I've usually worn grey or navy.

Considering that isn't an option (lol) I'd just wear what you have on.

What you have on is fine. I've worn deep blue or pine green before to wakes.
